After the ending scene from episode 1, it's funny that they started with this...

Well since Michiru was asleep, she wouldn't have known.
Ruka asking her whether she's fine. Michiru brushes her off saying she's okay.
reconciliation ???
we're then introduced to Ruka's father...


we're introduced to yet another character, Ogurin...Eri's senpai who's a timid husband. Apparently his wife had brought a man home and he is a coward, seriously. He didn't even dare to ask his wife about it. Talk about weak guys. jeez...

and becoz of that, he moved into the sharehouse and bringing a huge TV.
his character is basically the comedian in this series, he brings the light. Along with Eri too xD

hints on Takeru's problem again...as they were watching Heath Ledger's movie, Candy. It's awkward how Heath Ledger just passed away a while ago and they were watching his movie. Anyway, Takeru showed discomfort when the intimate scenes were shown. This showed that he must have had a terrible experience, or trauma, or simply he was sexually abused before.
and we see Ruka and Takeru sharing moments together, talking.

Ruka wanted Michiru to come see her race but hadn't had the chance to ask her, thus, being such a sweet guy Takeru is, he went to visit Michiru at ehr work place and asked her for Ruka.
Which Michiru politely declined as she wasn't sure whether she could make it, seeing how Sousuke might have reacted to the matter. But she passed a lucky charm for Ruka.

another sweet moment of them together...
Ruka being admitted to hospital after the accident during the race.

the first time Sousuke meets Ruka. are we sensing the coming danger?
